Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Readying the Forces

A few hours after the encounter with the thugs

I rested in an abandoned building, trying to get a handle on my new system. "Okay, now that that's over, how do I open this thing?" I muttered, feeling the weight of my earlier decisions.

Ding~

[You can open the system by saying "Status"; you can do this aloud or in your mind.]

I was startled. "You can talk?" I asked, taken aback by the system's sudden response.

Ding~

[The system will respond when necessary.]

"Oh, okay. Well, Status," I said aloud, and a screen flashed in front of me.

I tested out my new gear. The Advanced Armor felt snug and secure. I practiced with the AR and Pistol, adjusting to their controls.

I reviewed the new items and felt a surge of excitement. "Time to see what these can do," I said.

I turned to Steelwolf, its massive frame towering over me. "Steelwolf, are you ready for a test run?"

Steelwolf's internal systems whirred to life, and a mechanical voice responded, "Systems online. Awaiting instructions, Jax."

"Perfect. Let's check out your capabilities," I said, moving toward the mecha's control panel. I activated the AR-14 Assault Rifle and tested its range and accuracy, firing at targets I set up in the building. The rifle's precision was impressive, and the rate of fire was smooth.

"Impressive," I muttered, then turned to the 20 soldiers. "Alright, team, get into formation. I want to see how you handle a drill."

The soldiers quickly assembled, their medium armor gleaming under the dim light. Sergeant Reyes, one of the soldiers, stepped forward. "Sir, we're ready for the drill. What's the plan?"

"We're going to simulate a combat scenario. I want to see how well you adapt to coordinated attacks," I said. "Steelwolf will provide support."

The soldiers moved into position, and I observed as they practiced drills with their standard-issue weapons, demonstrating precision and coordination. Steelwolf's auto turret rotated, scanning for targets and showcasing its piercing capability.

After a successful drill, I approached Sergeant Reyes. "Good work, everyone. We need to keep this up and stay sharp. We've got a lot of ground to cover, and I need you all at your best."

The soldiers nodded in agreement, ready for whatever came next. Steelwolf's systems hummed in the background. "Alright, team, let's get to work," I said, preparing for the challenges ahead.
